I didn't think I could improve upon Stampers intro, so I'm borrowing his words (edited to fit):
"This is the second half of the 'NG Print Calendar '09' art contest. Here you can discuss the pieces, chatter like fags, make comments and critiques, post works in progress or detail shots...or you could be a pretentious douchebag who didn't contribute anything, yet for some reason feel like you've earned the right to call everyone a shitty artist and pick their work apart.
...whatever you want - just keep it here."
thanks, Stamper! ;)
Here's my crappy w.i.p. :(
